The Grace of Black Mothers is a debut poetry collection by Martheaus Perkins, published by Trio House Press.
The collection “brings a lyrical reckoning on behalf of dismembered dreams by boldly finding grace through our Black mothers, aunties, and grannies,” drawing on memory, ancestry, and formal experimentation to create a work of striking range and emotional force.
“Brims with grace, nuance, and artistry…a complex and bountiful Black world.”
— John Keene
“Revelatory and haunting.”
— J. Michael Martinez
Congratulations to Martheaus Perkins, collage artist B. Broadie, cover designer Baonhia Xiong, and the entire team at Trio House Press.
Please take your eternal place upon the Shelf of Immortality .
